Being in Maine you probably have a Fisher Plow

I had one for about 10 years. Worked great. Only thing was no matter what I tried the 10 pin connector would corrode and had to be replaced every 2-3 years. Had a Sno-Way...no Bueno. Currently on my eighth winter with a Boss

Got a Boss too! It's my second year plowing, and I haven't had any problems with it yet! (Knocking on the table) I also run a Downeaster spreader, and that's another story. It ran right for the first few weeks, and I've had nothing but problems ever since. Should have opted for the Poly-Caster instead. If we ever get any snow I'll be all set!

The Boss is wicked fast side to side and up/down The dealer here is very nice and accommodating here too. Hope you get your spreader straightened out.
